The Put Together Pooch

This place was amazing! Took the dog in on a Sunday. Susan was extremely helpful the entire time, but also allowed us our free space to get the dog clean. You get your own bathtub for your dog, she has treats to help lure the dog into the tub, and keep them distracted throughout the bathing process. She has several scents for shampoo and conditioner, cleaning brushes, ear cleaner, towels and a very efficient blow dryer! It was so easy, convenient and fun. She then trimmed the toenails in a very gentle manner. We did all of this at a very good price. We are SO excited to take our dog back there again!

Elliot sounds like an idiot.
Susan does an incredible job, I’ve been bringing my dog Murphy to her for over a year now and he always looks great. She is very nice and reasonably priced, I would highly recommend!

I have a very frightened lil boy who is getting up there in age. I have been taking him to Susan for several months now and it has been a great experience. She puts a little ear cover on him so that the blow dryer doesn’t scare him, keeps only one or two dogs in the store at a time so that they don’t get overwhelmed, and just generally seems to care for the animals that she’s working on.

Susan is the best! She turns our doodle puddn’ into a new looking dog every time. Highly recommend. Very flexible scheduling too.

My Yorkie came home today with yet another excellent cut and happy demeanor. I can’t say enough nice things about Susan, she is the best of the best!

Terrible. Showed her a photo of a golden with a short top coat. Come to find she had completely buzzed it off. The groomer’s excuse: my dog had curly hair and it’s not good looking to have a short top coat… Grooming 101: Under no circumstance are you supposed to buzz the top coat to a double coated dog. The lady Susan, is either lazy or has no idea what she’s doing… My advice, go to a professional.

Susan has been so nice to me as a new dog owner and to Daisy (a little rescue who is learning confidence). She really loves animals and is super good with them. We will definitely return.

Susan is the best! My Westie and mini Schnauzer always look fabulous and feel sassy after coming home. It’s unreal how fast she works and how consistently great they look! We’ve been customers for over two years, even now that we live farther away.

Susan is a fantastic groomer! She is patient and loving and clearly loves what she does. I have a pack of 3 who regularly see Susan. She makes my malamute’s coat shine and gets out all of his tangles while charging a decent price. Highly recommend.

Susan always does an amazing job with our dog, Oso! He loves going to see her, listens to what she says and always comes back smelling and looking awesome, with a cute hand-​made fabric collar cover to boot! I will probably not trust anyone ever except Susan with Osos grooming needs. Susan also has great customer service, is extremely flexible about setting appointment times, and you get the sense that she truly cares about your pet and making them look their best!

Last Friday, I was desperately searching online for a groomer who could clip my Shih Tzu, Maddie on Saturday, because she’s been so *hot* for the past few weeks, and her hair was looking scruffy.
In my search, I found The Put Together Pooch right here on Unilocal!
Sadly, I have driven right past this shop almost daily for five years, and never even noticed it; only due to my dumbness, not a lack of signage.
Susan is the owner and groomer, and she is incredibly nice. I brought my Chihuahua, Nacho, with us, and at the last second, I asked Susan if she could trim his nails. Nacho is about eighteen months old, and was a TERROR with nail trims. I’d been taking him to a vet to have it done, but Susan had some extra time, so she scooped up my boy and took him in the back. There was no screaming, and she brought him back to me, happy as a clam. Susan has an amazing energy that I know my dogs respond to.
I wanted to have Maddie trimmed as short as possible for the rest of the summer, and Susan did *exactly* what we discussed. I showed her a photo of a Shih Tzu whose ears had been trimmed (the hair, not the ear) all the way down; I’d been considering trying that «new look» on Maddie for a while. I also asked for Maddie’s standard, keep her eyelashes long if possible, anal-​gland expression and nail trim. And she was even wearing a fancy little pink neckerchief when I picked her up! I can honestly say, this was the best groom that Maddie has ever had! (She just turned five in June).
However, the second best part about Susan is that she accepts appointments on Saturdays and Sundays! This makes it SO much easier to get Maddie trimmed every six weeks. I live in City Park and work Downtown, but trying to negotiate an appointment during the week was becoming nearly impossible.
Maddie has a new groomer for LIFE! Thank you Susan!

I really like Susan. i trust that she is kind and patient with my two poodles. One is very wild and the other is a very timid rescue. I appreciate that she tailors to the dogs needs and makes them comfortable. She is also flexible and will work with your schedule when she can.

I’ve taken all three of my dogs to Susan and she has been extremely patient and good with them. They are all rescues and have their own issues about being groomed. She was understanding and patient with each of them. I highly recommend her and will always take my dogs to her!

I found The Put Together Pooch here on Unilocal.It’s a small, groomer owned establishment. Susan was able to get me in quickly. She was very good with all the dogs that were there. Very laid back and friendly. She groomed my Yorkie within an hour and a half and she was looking and smelling beautiful when I got her back. Price was standard for a Yorkie ($ 45-​$ 50). I will definitely return.

I just picked up my Aussie Mix from here and am SO happy with the job Susan did! I don’t think my dog has ever been so clean and happy! Susan was extremely welcoming and friendly! The price was very reasonable as well. I will be visiting her shop again!

The owner Susan has groomed two of my dogs, and I’ve been really happy with both the results and her compassion towards animals I had a 15-​year old Samoyed (kind of like an all-​white huskie; lots of fur). Since Kira was so elderly, Susan made special arrangements so that Kira could have breaks during her appointment. Susan has also groomed my foster-​dog who is a pug. Great neighborhood business!

Susan is the BEST groomer and most kind lady that my dogs and I have ever met. I took my Maltese, Lou-​Lou, to her since 1995. Lou-​Lou recently passed, and now I have a border collie mix, Ivy, that I trust Susan with completely. I drive 30 minutes to the shop because I can’t think of taking my dog anywhere else. Ivy actually LOOKS FORWARD to her grooming! I HIGHLY recommend Susan with all my heart. Kind and caring, a good person. It’s hard to find someone like her these days.

My dog was a research animal until a year ago and he’s very shy and easily scared. I have been impressed with Susan’s dedication and her desire to share her knowledge whether or not the customer is a do-​it-​yourself service user. My dog was unused to baths at all and has come a long way toward getting comfortable with one due to Susan’s kind concern.
